This problem typically resolves itself after a few sheets have been printed. To clear a media jam inside the device CAUTION Media jams might result in loose toner on the page. If toner gets on your clothing, wipe the toner off with a clean cloth, wash the items in cold water, and air dry. Using hot water or heat from a dryer will set the toner in the fabric. If you get any toner on your hands, wash them in cold water. Do not use a sharp object, such as a pencil or scissors, to remove jammed media. 1 On the back of the device, open the rear-output door, and then push down the fuser levers. Releasing the fuser levers relieves tension on the device rollers, which allows you to remove the jammed pages. 2 Push the scanner-release button to open the scanner assembly. 3 Open the top cover, and then remove the image drum and set it aside.
